Aug 31, 2007 · However, domestication (or at least incipient or semi-domestication) without cultivation may occur by selective removal of undesirable phenotypes and/or enhancement of desirable phenotypes in wild populations, thus changing the proportion of phenotypes in the managed populations, as described by Casas et al. (1997, 1999) and Anderson (2004) for ...

The evidence from ancient crops over the past decade challenges some of our most basic assumptions about the process of domestication. The emergence of crops has been viewed as a technologically progressive process in which single or multiple localized populations adapt to human environments in response to cultivation. By contrast, new genetic and archaeological evidence reveals a slow process ...
Jul 22, 2019 · Domestication is a co-evolutionary process that occurs when wild plants are brought into cultivation by humans, leading to origin of new species and/or differentiated populations that are critical for human survival. Darwin used domesticated species as early models for evolution, highlighting their variation and the key role of selection in ...
